Description from the seller
French antique tabletop clock – Rococo style – Bronzed metal – early 20th century – Working
Elegant and refined antique tabletop clock, presumably of French manufacture, dating from the early 20th century.
The clock is distinguished by its scenographic cast metal structure with bronzed finish, richly decorated in Rococo taste.
The case features elaborate volutes, vegetal and floral motifs, relief decorations, and a prominent asymmetric upper crown.
The base rests on shaped feet, giving the object a particularly elegant and monumental appearance.
The circular ivory-colored dial presents black antique-style Arabic numerals, ornate pierced hands, and a modanated metal frame.
On the back there is the mechanism with indications in French, including “Réveil” and “Mouvement,” related to alarm regulation and movement winding.
